Not Quite

I woke up early, checked my phone, and went back to bed. I was seeing if Jen had texted me yet. If the shirts came out bad, I was going to have to run to her house with dye. I woke up a few hours later and got a text. The shirts came out pretty cool looking. They were the right color, and the white patches weren't too obvious. We agreed they came out pretty damn good. After I texted her a bit, I started my day. I had to really buckle down today. My sorority binder still needed to be decorated, and things still needed to be memorized. I began with the decoration. I spent a while figuring out what to do. I ended up printing a few photos and using stickers to put them in place on the binder. I had pictures of my cat, random photography, and a picture of all of the seniors in the children's play last year (that happened before I began my blog). I also printed 2 pictures of Kyle and I. One picture was of us when we were around 3 or 4 hugging each other by a sandbox. The second photo was us in almost the same pose 15yrs later the day we graduated high school together. I put the photos side by side, and it's pretty incredible and beautiful to see how much we've grown together. I continued to put stickers everywhere and make sure the photos were in the right place. A picture of Jen and I together is on the cover of the binder. It's cute looking. I just hope the girls like the binder. A little while into decorating, Jen calls me. She washed the shirts (per the directions), and the pink had faded from hot pink to a light baby pink. We both somewhat panicked, but then she said her fiancé was going to go get bright pink fabric dye to try and fix it. If this doesn't work, I don't know if our shirts will be ready by tomorrow. She and I also have a lot of studying to do. I have about half of the oath, 90% of the alphabet, and maybe half of the commandments. I don't want to look like an idiot tomorrow if I forget something in front of the group. Even while showering, I was listening to a recording of myself reading the commandments and oath. Now, I still have a bit of time until I should go to bed. I guess I'll continue studying and memorizing and focusing. Wish me luck everyone. Oh, and also wish Jen and I luck with those damn shirts.
